Abstract
Glycolipids such as sugar alcohol esters have been demonstrated to be relevant for numerous applications across various domains of specialty. The use of organic solvents and, more recently, deep eutectic solvents (DESs) to mediate lipase-supported bioconversions is gaining potential for industrial application. However, many challenges and limitations remain such as extensive time of production and relatively low productivities among others, which must be solved to strengthen such a biocatalytic process in industry. In this context, this study focuses on the intensification of sorbityl laurate production, as a model biocatalyzed reaction using Novozym 435, investigating the relevance of temperature, heating method, and solvent system. By increasing the reaction temperature from 50 to 90 °C, the space-time yield and product yield were considerably enhanced for reactions in DES and the organic solvent 2M2B, irrespective of the heating method (conventional or microwave heating). However, positive effects in 2M2B were more pronounced with conventional heating as 98% conversion yield was reached within 90 min at 90 °C, equating thus to a nearly 4-fold increase in performance yielding 118.0 ± 3.6 g/(L·h) productivity. With DES, the overall yield and space-time yield were lower with both heating methods. However, microwave heating enabled a 2-fold increase in both performance parameters when the reaction temperature was increased from 50 to 90 °C. Compared to conventional heating, a 7-fold increase in space-time yield at 50 °C and a 16-fold increase at 90 °C were achieved in DES by microwave heating. Furthermore, microwave irradiation enabled the usage of a neat, solvent-free system, representing an initial proof of concept with productivities of up to 13.3 ± 2.3 g/(L·h).

Abstract
A sustainable scaling-up process for the biocatalytic production of new bioactive provitamin-B5 monoacyl esters has been demonstrated. A solvent-free reaction protocol, based on the formation of eutectic mixtures between neat substrates, renders highly efficient direct esterification of free fatty acids (i.e., from C6 to C18 alkyl-chain length) with panthenol catalyzed by lipase. The scale-up from 0.5 to 500 g was evaluated by means of using several reaction systems (i.e., ultrasound assistance, orbital shaking, rotary evaporator, and mechanical stirring coupled to vacuum). For all reactor systems, the yield in panthenyl monoacyl esters was improved by increasing the length of the alkyl chain of the fatty acid (i.e., from 63% yield for panthenyl butyrate to 83% yield for panthenyl myristate). The best results (87-95% product yield, for all cases) were obtained upon a scale-up (50-500 g size) and when a vacuum system was coupled to the biocatalytic reaction unit. Under the optimized conditions, a 5-fold reduction of the amount of biocatalysts with respect to reactors without vacuum was achieved. The recovery and reuse of the immobilized enzyme for five operation cycles were also demonstrated. Finally, different metrics have been applied to assess the greenness of the solvent-free biocatalytic synthesis of panthenyl monoesters here reported.

Abstract
According to the "interfacial activation" mechanism, constructing a sufficient interface is the key strategy for lipase-catalytic system designing. Based on the "infinite interface in finite three-dimensional space" logic, in the current study, poly(N,N-dimethylacrylamide) (PDMA)-polybutyl methacrylate (PBMA) hybrid gels were prepared by a two-step crosslinking strategy, subsequently constructed as lipase-interfacial catalytic systems. The results confirm that the PDMA-PBMA hybrid gels with "networks in pores" structures could swell both the aqueous phase and organic phase. The balance between water swelling and isooctane swelling, hybrid gel space (height control), and the lipase entry manner significantly affect the interface construction and consequently the catalytic efficiency. The enzyme-substrate contact rate affected by swelling leads to three catalytic stages. Considering the spatial barrier and distribution of lipases, a potential high-performance lipase reactor can be assembled from small-size, lamellar-like, and porous hybrid gels. The reactors also show good time storage and low temperature tolerance.

Abstract
This study aimed to optimize the green synthesis of glucose palm oleate catalyzed by Carica papaya Lipase (CPL) through transesterification in a solvent-free system. Palm olein was used as a fatty acid donor for transesterification reactant and was also employed as a reaction medium. Reaction optimization was performed by using response surface methodology (RSM). Seventeen synthesis conditions were generated by a Box–Behnken design and the products were further determined by ultra-performance liquid chromatography (UPLC). Fatty acid compositions of palm olein identified by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) found that oleic acid (51.77 ± 0.67%) and palmitic acid (37.22 ± 0.48%) were major components. The synthesis variable factors of 50 °C, 45 h reaction time, and 1400 U of CPL were predicted by the RSM to be optimum conditions and thus provided the highest glucose palm oleate of 0.3542 mmol/g. Conjugation between palm olein fatty acids and glucose via transesterification resulted in glucose palm oleate being obviously verified by UPLC, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), and thin-layer chromatography (TLC) analyses. The synthesized sugar fatty acid ester revealed an HLB value of 6.20 represented by the lowest % creaming index (%CI) of 35.40 ± 3.21%. It also exhibited a critical micelle concentration (CMC) of 3.16 × 10−5 M. This study is the first report to reveal the transesterification of glucose and palm olein catalyzed by CPL in a system without using any solvent. Glucose palm oleate has been shown to be derived from an environmentally friendly synthesis process and would be promising as a potential alternative natural surfactant for cosmetic application.

Abstract
The intensification of processes is essential for the sustainability of the biorefinery concept. Enzyme catalysis assisted by ultrasound (US) may offer interesting opportunities in the agri-food sector because the cavitation effect provided by this technology has been shown to improve the efficiency of the biocatalysts. This review presents the recent advances in this field, focused on three main applications: ultrasound-assisted enzymatic extractions (UAEE), US hydrolysis reactions, and synthesis reactions assisted by US for the manufacturing of agri-food produce and ingredients, enabling the upgrading of agro-industrial waste. Some theoretical and experimental aspects of US that must be considered are also reviewed. Ultrasonic intensity (UI) is the main parameter affecting the catalytic activity of enzymes, but a lack of standardization for its quantification makes it unsuitable to properly compare results. Applications of enzyme catalysis assisted by US in agri-foods have been mostly concentrated in UAEE of bioactive compounds. In second place, US hydrolysis reactions have been applied for juice and beverage manufacturing, with some interesting applications for producing bioactive peptides. In last place, a few efforts have been performed regarding synthesis reactions, mainly through trans and esterification to produce structured lipids and sugar esters, while incipient applications for the synthesis of oligosaccharides show promising results. In most cases, US has improved the reaction yield, but much information is lacking on how different sonication conditions affect kinetic parameters. Future research should be performed under a multidisciplinary approach for better comprehension of a very complex phenomenon that occurs in very short time periods.
